Chareidie Lady becomes a Train Driver in Israel


 Meet Adar Esther.

A Charedi woman. 23-years-old.
She just graduated an eight month course to become a train driver for Israel Railways!

Adar Esther: “There is a stigma in our community that I am entering a role that is for men…but there is no contradiction. The opposite. This has strengthened my faith. It is important to me not to compromise at all religiously. The company has been sensitive to all my religious needs including when I can and can’t work.”

Congratulations to Adar Esther.
All aboard!
